Oleksandr Zinchenko | Joins Arsenal for £30m

[RandomJ]

Fabrizio still saying the move is on. Guess we’ll see who is right in the coming days.

 

[waspish]

So he doesn’t go that’s us done on incomings!

We need a fcuking left back who can play 50 games a season! I love Zinchenko but it’s time for him to move on…

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Because he is.

Yeah, so useless on the right that we paid nearly £60m for his performances there. So useless that he regularly tears it up for Portugal there.

It's bullshit.

erm

But we need to upgrade. I am not sure he would be happy on the bench. The smart thing to do right now would be to go to Arsenal.

Zin needs to go, I was fine with him staying but if he stays and we don't get a left back, we go into the season with an achillies heel in the side against the top teams. You need a outright Left back

Martin is reliable but Ornstein has been the most reliable for everything this window and he broke the Zinchenko deal.

I really hope he stays he ain't the best full back (fb) but he's not the worst either, our fb's are in midfield more than any other and IMO he excels in the midfield.

I still don't understand why we're not in for a right-back instead. Cancelo and Zinchenko is just fine on the left, we need proper back-up for Walker because Cancelo's useless on the right.

Eh? I think he is far better on the right

 

[Matt Diablo]

Please Zinner thanks and all that but really is time to move on now - we 100% need a proper left back who is quick and can defend the back fikin post!!!!

 

[DMA's]

If we lose zinchenko but sign cucurella we have massively upgraded at left back. For that reason we need to politely show zinchenko the door imo.

Still think he won’t leave though which is a bad move for him and us

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Cancelo mate.

I think the plan for next season is/was to play Cancelo more often at RB and to use the new FB at LB. Now, if we keep Zinch, we may change the plan. Cancelo stays our main LB and we are a bit light at RB.

I'd be happy to have Walker, Cancelo and Cucu as our main FB options, plus Stones at RB and Ake at LB as 3rd choice. But if we don't sell Zinch, then a quality new FB may be needed indeed. He will cost over 20m. We have to decide whether it's better to sell Zinch for 30m and buy Cucu for 50m, or it's better to keep Zinch and invest 30-40m in a new FB, who may not be as good as Cucu, though...

It’s all gone very quiet on a move for Issa Kabore. Maybe he will be second choice right back
